Correct normalised fluorescence to compensate for cellular quenching effects

Description

Used by process_plate function for cell quench correction. The presence of cells, particularly at high densities, can 'quench' fluorescence such that fluorescence readings are lower than expected from the equivalent FP concentration in vitro. This function compensates for this effect using empirical data that relates the fold decrease in fluorescence expected, given a certain cell density.

Usage

correct_flu(pr_data, od_type, flu_channel)

Arguments

pr_data

a data.frame of parsed plate reader data

od_type

Which OD-type was used? Required for quench correction. "OD600" or "OD700".

flu_channel

fluorescent channel name

Value

an updated data.frame with an additional column for corrected fluorescence
